Got blocked for ten minutes
TitleGot blocked for ten minutes for leaving a game because my 3rd went AFK. Was about to lose anyway, how about permaban AFKs from ranked play you dumb __________ instead of punishing me or saving time.

Yep last time i checked i had a AFK teammate and my other teammate picked up my banner and died.
I had to wait till my afk teammate died by the zone before i could leave :Dbad memories.
- @CtrL4LT How do you know the AFK player did not get DC'd? It does happen. I think a permaban for being DC'd is a bit extreme. The 10 minute ban was avoidable, it is not the end of the world to sit there for 1 minute and let your banner expire.
In my opinion, the benefits of having a leaver penalty far out weighs taking it away. I can frequently come in clutch and recover banners. Before they implemented the leaver penalty, I would frequently squad wipe the team who downed my mates. Have plenty of time to respawn them and get their loot back.. Only for them to leave in a fit of rage. Which would leave me in the difficult position of playing through a ranked match 1vs3. If they would have waited just 1 minute it could have translated to a win or at the very least more kills and more RP. @DarthValtrex Because a red connection symbol appears by their nameplate when they disconnect.
Ranked is full of afkers. 😛
- @CtrL4LT In Valorant, leavers penalty and AFK penalty is very strict. It's implemented in casual modes too. It not only bans you for a period of time but also inhibits your progression in the game. So bye-bye leavers and AFKers.
Note: My reply is only in Apex Ranked context.
